THE MORE YOU LOOK THE LESS YOU SEE

It is commonly know in everyday life activities; always being talked about, the wrong side of life.
It was on a fateful day, the 7th of september, 1976 when this incident occur.
A lady called Toyin was into a relationship with an average man.
Her parent was never in any wise happy with her about this as they want her to marry an affluence man.
On exactly 3:47pm on the sunny day of 20th march, 1978, an handsome man came home in search of Toyin at home. The parent was so elated as they thought their wish for their daughter is coming into reality.
This man before he left gave them a huge sum of money, a whooping cash of #250,000 and asked them to deliver a diamond chain and golden earings to their daughter. Although they never knew this man with their daughter before but they admire him a lot because of his affluence. In fact this man only met the lady in discussion only on two occations, one being in a birthday party and the second being in an industrial estate.
When Toyin returned from work, her parent narrated their excited story and showed her all the gifts that the rich man left for her, but she was never moved as she insisted on marrying Tunji.
On the second day; this man who identify himself as Gbenga came again to check on her, but couldn't meet her at home as she had already went out to fixed her hair.
Toyin's parent decided to frustrate her to yield to their demand and wishes, threatening her with a coerce voice of rejection and after much pressure she gave in.
As time goes by she started going out with Gbenga and forgot about Tunji. Later they got married. Although Tunji was like 'the world is a cruel place', yet on much persuation and encouragement, he stood again to explore the world of his dreams. And being a petroleum engineer, the future was very bright ahead.
As for Toyin, she had a happy married life and her parent through this rich man gained a place in the influencial realm.
As time goes by, she gave birth to five kids, three male children and two females.
Ten years to her marriage, she just discovers that all her children began to die one after the other until only one was left. What could cause this? Every body begans to wonder. Toyin almost run mad. although she was not mad, she later developed stroke and she couldn't leave home.
One funny thing about this was that Gbenga married another wife and let home for another location where the new wife was kept.
All these secret was later revealed.
On a fateful day like this, Toyin's parent decided to consult a herbalist who told them that Toyin's husband was the brain behind all the misfortune befalling their daughter. In fact, every where they got to, they were told that Gbenga was an occult.
To aid the confirmation of this, Gbenga came home someday only to ask Toyin to leave the house for the New wife. It was indeed an unspeakable event.
That night, God gave Toyin the grace to see her husband in a separate room where she was hearing him invoking the spirits of his dead children to go and bring money for him, calling them by names around 2:00am. As a woman,it was dificult for her to keep it and she shouted. immediately she shouted, being the fact that another eyes has seen Gbenga, He quickly go wacko.
Of course Toyin was brought back home to be catered for by her parent and the only daughter left for her which is her only hope.

To make the whole matter look mysterious, Toyin was watching TV on that day when she heard in the news that Tunji had been elected the ambassador of OPEC in the whole of Africa. it was a shoking news indeed. of course Tunji became a very successful man, he was an engineer, he was also a successful inventor in the world of chemistry as he won the overall best inventor in the whole of Africa.

Tunji had three children and a more beautiful wife. His wife is also a doctor and a virtuous woman indeed.

Had it been that Toyin's parent allows her to do her wish, may be she could be that lucky woman which could in the future become the first lady of either a state or the whole nation.
